Tuna Pasta Salad

When the weather warms up … what to make for dinner is an issue for me.

I like cold food on hot days and hot food on cold days! I’m pretty sure that I’m not alone on this 😉

Son #3 thinks that we don’t have Tuna Pasta Salad often enough (even though he picks out the celery) … he will ask “Is today hot enough for Tuna Pasta Salad?” Today the answer is … Yes, will you be home for dinner?

When I want to make something quick and easy in warm weather … this pasta salad is one thing that I rely on. I make it in the morning … put it in the fridge, so that it will be nice and cold for dinner.

We tend to use chicken quite a bit for dinners, tuna is a nice alternative. This salad is a favorite because of the combo of flavors, crunch of the vegetables and sweet juiciness of the grapes! I also like easy one pot meals 😉

I LOVE tuna! I need to try this! You’re right, nothing’s better than a cold dish on a hot day. Pinning to try soon! Glad I found your blog today on the Time to Sparkle party, now following you via Facebook. Come visit me sometime!

This pasta salad looks fabulous! I am funny when it comes to warm days, I like to eat cold foods, but for some reason I like soup too…go figure! I think the children would like this salad a lot. Thanks!

I was making this salad from memory, and never added the lemon juice. I want to make it tomorrow, as I made once for my brother when he was visiting, and he is with me again and ask about it. I will add the lemon this time – this is such an awesome salad, I eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner and in between as snack! Thank you for posting!!!
